MySpace Makes Nice with Twitter

MySpace users now have the ability to update their statuses and syndicate those updates directly to their Twitter streams, and tweets can now appear in their MySpace statuses and moods, senior product manager Sharon Nguyen said in a MySpace Blog post.

Users can choose whether they want their status updates to be one-way or two-way. MySpace is using OAuth to synch with Twitter for the service, which is currently in beta, according to CNET.

CNET added that all account credentials will be protected, keeping user information “confidential.”
